Chapter 2229: Chapter 2249: Is the Yin-Yang Spring Owned by Someone?_1

Lin Chen floated above the grassland, gazing at the ancient well in the center that emitted an endless aura of life.

There was spring water within the well, not too much, but the rich breath of life spread from the mouth of the well to all directions.

Lin Chen took a deep breath and immediately felt an unparalleled refreshing sensation in his limbs and bones. He turned to the side and said, "Such a strong life essence, Old Lu, is the water inside this what you called the Yin-Yang Spring?"

Lu Yao’s eyes were filled with intense surprise. He hadn’t expected Lin Chen to actually find the legendary Yin-Yang Spring, which was said to exist only in tales.

Originally resigned to a death wish, Lu Yao had planned to perish alongside Qin Zheng; however, while Qin Zheng died, Lu Yao was brutally pulled back from the brink of death at Ghost Gate by Lin Chen using the Shengling Pearl. Since Lu Yao had already died once, naturally, he did not wish to die again.

"This is not the Yin-Yang Spring; it’s the Yin Spring," he replied.

Lin Chen was stunned, "Yin Spring, so there is also a Yang Spring?"

Lu Yao nodded affirmatively, "Yes, let’s go to the other side and take a look. Since the Yin Spring is here, the Yang Spring should be as well."

Lin Chen said in surprise, "The other side? The temperature over there is so high that even iron would probably melt. Is there also spring water?"

Lu Yao laughed, "Go and see, and you will know."

The two took to the air, floating mid-flight, and soon found another well in that charred hot zone.

In the well, firelight flickered. On closer inspection, there indeed was liquid churning within it, but this liquid seemed to be condensed from the purest of flames, filled with terrifyingly high temperatures.

Lin Chen said in amazement, "These two wells don’t seem to be naturally formed, do they?"

Lu Yao responded with a smile, "This folded space doesn’t seem to be naturally formed either."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen immediately understood, "You mean that someone with great power found this place, and then created these two wells. In order to protect the Yin-Yang Spring from being obtained by others, they folded the space?"

Lu Yao nodded, "To you, this world might have just been discovered. You worked hard for a long time to set up a Teleportation Gate and entered this secondary world through it, so you think you might be the first batch of explorers to this world. But the truth may not be so."

Lin Chen reasoned backward from the conclusion, continuing, "In fact, someone with great power discovered this world long ago, and also found the realm of Yin and Yang. For some reason, they built two wells here and folded the space..."

"Yes!"

Lu Yao’s eyesight was tinged with regret, "A Daluo Initial Immortal can create Heaven and Earth with a single thought, especially those who possess space manipulating Divine Powers. For them, such worlds scattered throughout the Immortal Realm, unknown to anyone, are like their own backyards — they come and go as they please."

"By using their Divine Powers, they can discover countless undiscovered small worlds. With their Divine Sense sweeping across Heaven and Earth, in no time at all, they can complete their exploration of the entire world."

"Ordinary things certainly would not pique their interest, but a place like this, where the Yin Yang Qi of Heaven and Earth converges, naturally cannot escape their perception. Constructing two Formation Wells at their convenience, they accelerate the flow and sedimentation of the Yin Yang Qi, forming the Yin-Yang Spring. Then, they fold the space casually, hiding this place to prevent damage from Magical Beasts or adventurers."

"Isn’t it the same as an adventurer discovering an immature Immortal Medicine, protecting it with an Array Formation, leaving behind coordinates, and waiting to harvest it later?"

Lin Chen’s eyes widened, "So, the Yin-Yang Spring is already claimed by someone?"

Lu Yao smiled, "It is, and it isn’t."

Lin Chen asked, puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Lu Yao explained, "The Yin and Yang Qi are born of Heaven and Earth. Indeed, these two Formation Wells accelerated the creation of the Yin-Yang Spring, but can you say that just because you built a well, the Yin-Yang Spring belongs to you?"

"To use the previous example, if you discover an Immortal Herb Seedling and protect it with an Array Formation, leaving behind coordinates, but when the Immortal Medicine matures, you fail to harvest it in time and someone else happens to find it, breaking through your protection Array and taking away the Immortal Medicine, would you consider that theft?"

Lin Chen replied without hesitation, "No! Although I discovered it first, it is not considered my personal property. If leaving a mark makes it private property, then who could claim all things in a region as theirs by marking them?"

Lu Yao chuckled and said, "So, although that powerful being has constructed the well and folded space, it doesn’t prove ownership. Now that you have come here and found it, naturally you can take it. This is an opportunity. You wouldn’t consider it stealing if someone took away the Immortal Medicine you marked, likewise, that powerful being would not consider you a thief either."

Lin Chen blinked, "So if we take the Yin-Yang Spring, could we alarm him?"

Lu Yao shook his head, "I’m not sure about that. What we’ve just discussed is the principle of it, but if the other party is strong and doesn’t act reasonably, that naturally would be a different story."

Lin Chen gave a wry smile, "Then all you’ve said, isn’t it ultimately inconsequential?"

Lu Yao laughed heartily, "Do you dare to take it?
